Install HotService, a Cocoa input manager bundle, and all shortcuts of services are available right after launching Cocoa applications.

Currently (up to Mac OS X 10.3.9) you have to pull down the application menu at least once before it's possible to use shortcuts of services.
In addition, HotService moves the services menu up to the main menu bar (behind the windows menu) to make it easier to reach the services.

What's New:
NEW Title of services menu is now a bullet to save menu bar space
Improved Faster initialization of services menu.
